Portland Street Response is situated in the City of Portland’s first responder system, and in the broader continuum of crisis care. Learn more about the program below: About Portland Street Response (PSR): Portland Street Response assists people experiencing mental health and behavioral health crises. The goal of Portland Street Response is to update our first responder system by providing an additional compassionate first response option when 911 is called for someone experiencing low-acuity behavioral health issues. PSR is dispatched by the Bureau of Emergency Communications (BOEC) to respond to non-life-threatening crises currently responded to by Police and Fire, such as behavioral health issues and welfare checks. Program Values: Equity & Social Justice: Strive to uplift the dignity and worth of all Portlanders, particularly those who have been historically marginalized and criminalized, by ensuring timely and professional person-centered first response. Collaboration: Ensure the best possible outcomes for our clients by working collaboratively with community partners, health systems, and traditional first responders. Empathy & Compassion: Operate from a framework of Trauma-Informed Care with the recognition that adverse life experiences (including health systems and carceral trauma) create barriers for clients to connect with the care and supportive services they need to thrive in the community. Resource Efficiency & Prioritization: Respond to the complex care needs of individuals experiencing low acuity crises in the community to enable Police and Fire resources to attend to life saving and crime-related calls for service. The program is expected to: Reduce the number of calls traditionally responded to by Police where criminal activity is not present. Reduce the number of individuals transported to the emergency department for low acuity medical related issues that are more effectively addressed in a pre-hospital care setting. Reduce the number of behavioral health and substance use/intoxication calls traditionally responded to by Police and Fire. Reduce unnecessary emergency department admissions. Improve access to care and resources within the community. Prevent burnout of other first responders. Position Summary The PSR EMT Medical Responder will operate on a two-person multi-disciplinary team to provide crisis intervention and first aid. A Medical Responder will be dispatched along with a Mental Health Crisis Responder to low acuity Police and Fire 911 calls that present no criminal intent, fire, or medical emergency. This position will also engage with a population that exhibits sub-acute crises, that may include behavioral health and substance use conditions. As an EMT Medical Responder, you will: Provide crisis intervention to clients who are in emotional distress. Perform ongoing patient assessments on-scene to monitor changes in patient condition and accommodate changes in breathing, mentation and circulation.

Portland Street Response is situated in the City of Portland’s first responder system, and in the broader continuum of crisis care. Learn more about the program below: About Portland Street Response (PSR): Portland Street Response assists people experiencing mental health and behavioral health crises. The goal of Portland Street Response is to update our first responder system by providing an additional compassionate first response option when 911 is called for someone experiencing low-acuity behavioral health issues. PSR is dispatched by the Bureau of Emergency Communications (BOEC) to respond to non-life-threatening crises currently responded to by Police and Fire, such as behavioral health issues and welfare checks. Program Values: Equity & Social Justice: Strive to uplift the dignity and worth of all Portlanders, particularly those who have been historically marginalized and criminalized, by ensuring timely and professional person-centered first response. Collaboration: Ensure the best possible outcomes for our clients by working collaboratively with community partners, health systems, and traditional first responders. Empathy & Compassion: Operate from a framework of Trauma-Informed Care with the recognition that adverse life experiences (including health systems and carceral trauma) create barriers for clients to connect with the care and supportive services they need to thrive in the community. Resource Efficiency & Prioritization: Respond to the complex care needs of individuals experiencing low acuity crises in the community to enable Police and Fire resources to attend to life saving and crime-related calls for service. The program is expected to: Reduce the number of calls traditionally responded to by Police where criminal activity is not present. Reduce the number of individuals transported to the emergency department for low acuity medical related issues that are more effectively addressed in a pre-hospital care setting. Reduce the number of behavioral health and substance use/intoxication calls traditionally responded to by Police and Fire. Reduce unnecessary emergency department admissions. Improve access to care and resources within the community. Prevent burnout of other first responders. Position Summary The PSR EMT Medical Responder will operate on a two-person multi-disciplinary team to provide crisis intervention and first aid. A Medical Responder will be dispatched along with a Mental Health Crisis Responder to low acuity Police and Fire 911 calls that present no criminal intent, fire, or medical emergency. This position will also engage with a population that exhibits sub-acute crises, that may include behavioral health and substance use conditions.
